Took the car back to the garage again today, they stripped out the springs and told me i needed a new drivers side top mount.
The car has stopped making twanging noises now, but is still knocking.
Do you think the 3mm washer that fred posted about would fix this or do i really need a new top...
It was a local hi-Q garage. Im hoping they have just been fitted incorrectly.
Can anyone guess what's likely to have been done wrong, i dont really understand what could be done wrong an if any other damage could occur??
Just had a set of Sportlines fitted yesterday and the car was driving fine after.
Today when making only small 1/2 turns of the wheel, both left right an at low high speeds it makes loud knocks and twanging (if thats a word :D)
Is this just the springs settling, or have they maybe been fitted...
Just bought some eibach sportline's but I relly dont trust myself fitting them :S
So got a quote from a local garage... £140?!
Seems a little steep as they only cost me £124 delivered!!
What do people reckon i should be paying, i was expecting to pay round bout £50-60 hour or two labour??
Just got back from kaiser gig tonight so bit pissed up. forgive poor grammer?!
Basically last week i topped up my washer tank then went to use in the week and it seemed to be empty. I put this down to maybe over use and thought nothing of it. Topped it up added some antifreeze, got home tonight...
Hey rich, can i ask why you say no to highway?
Hearing bad things about them!
Any others through flux you wouldn't recommend or reccomend?

Im 23 with 4 yrs no claims discount. Car has filter, tints and exhaust.
Been getting quotes through direct line, privelige etc for £530 but they wont insure with an exhaust. Filters and tints are fine.
With the exhaust you have to be over 25?! strange.
Anyway flux will insure me for just over...
This is a short cr*ppy video of mine. Covered about 360 miles since its been fitted including a decat aswell.
Seems to be quieter at lower speeds, and louder when giving it some now. Have to see how it is after 1k miles or so.
Been out today and it seems to have got quieter than when i first had it fitted, definately sounds better once the cars warmed up.
ill try get a video up laters.
I might try putting the cat back on to see if that makes a difference.
How do i check to see if the joints are blowing... Is it a case of just putting your hands near joints to feel for escaping gas??
Has anyone else found that the system is louder when not flooring it??
Before i brought the...
Just had a milltek full system fitted to my 182 with the milltek cat-replacement pipe.
WOW its loud i thought it was supposed to be a subtle deeper note change.
Dont get me wrong i do love it, ive covered about 300 miles. Its seems to be louder when not on the throttle and coasting at about...
Ive ordered a new Milltek system for my 182 and a de-cat which should be arriving monday and fitted saturday.
Just wondering what do i need to do to stop the lambda sensor light from coming on??
And if it does come on is it going to damage the car in any way? or is it just the cars way of...
Im looking for a miltek currently. Cheapest i found is £385 + 14.95 delivery.
@roadrunnermotorsport.co.uk
Where bouts have you found it for that price??
Cheers luke, will have a look.
See your running with a miltek, is it boomy on motorways??
I have a bmc cda fitted, wondering if that might make it a bit to loud?!
Ahhhh, its more or less a 50/50 split.
Im swaying towards a miltek at the moment, will be getting the miltek de-cat aswell.
Does £420 for the system and de-cat sound like a good price delivered?
